I would strongly suggest using AIs other than #Google #Gemini. There is a reason #GeoffreyHinton left #Google. Prompt multiple AIs and compare the answers. Moreover, don't buy #RedState #Liquor. There are lots of excellent #BlueState #Distilleries and #CraftBreweries. Throw your #RedStateShit away and never buy it again.
just got home from the
#Hobart Farm Gate #Markets
(my #possums & #kangaroos are gourmet, insist on #organic local food)
One thing that i learnt is that #Tasmania has many boutique #whiskey and #gin #distilleries
They are all there wth $200 bottles..
"Would you like a taste sir?""
Dont mind if i do.
Are you getting the hints of oak on this, getting peat on that one?"
"Mate all im getting is smashed!
See you next sunday!
By the time I left I was half cut.

#Vodka maker #Stoli files for #bankruptcy in US after #ransomware attack
The cyberattack forced manual operations across the group, affecting key processes such as accounting, with full recovery not expected until early 2025.
In July 2024 two #distilleries valued at $100 million, the group's last remaining assets in #Russia, were also confiscated in connection with the designation of the Stoli Group and its founder, Yuri Shefler, as "extremists."

The usage of #peat was very popular in #Scotland, #Japan, #India and #NewZealand.

Got to visit the new Journeyman distillery in Valparaiso this weekend and how cool! Here's a photo of their column still, which is still being set up. The tasting room offered samples of most of their lineup. Food in the dining room was delicious. Recommend! Spent way too much in the gift shop ...
Hanging out with friends at Lost Ark Distillery in Columbia MD. Doing a Nicki Minaj themed drag brunch.
I can't promise pics because I'm bad at them 🤣.
Will at least report back on how it was after.

Again I'm tagging @tea@a.gup.pe for content that is #Chinese #liquor. This time it has arrived and I can actually review #tea infused liquor!
First the good things:
1. I like the #bottle #design. This sounds shallow, but working where I work I know how important distinctive looks are. They've done something tasteful, but distinctive here. and didn't just use some standard bottle like so many #distilleries choose to.
2. The liquor itself is nice. At 52%/104proof, pretty much the standard grade of decent liquor in #China, the very strong base grain used (#sorghum) and the other grains used (#wheat, #rice, #corn -- mostly in the 酒麹/"jiǔqū" or just plain " qū" starter) cuts through the alcohol burn with its flavour. This is "#浓香/#nóngxiāng" or "#StrongAroma" (a.k.a. Luzhou style), so it is very sweet ... with none of the sweetness coming from sugars. This is a nice sipping liquor with a complicated attack and a quiet finish with the alcohol acting less to burn than to carry the aromatic components into your sinuses. I will definitely try it again.
But that leads us to the bad thing (and the point where my fellow tea fiends will be disappointed):
3. When I concentrate very hard I can fool myself into thinking that maybe, just maybe, I'm tasting the tea. But let's be #BrutallyHonest: if this were placed in front of me without prior knowledge and I were asked to identify all the taste components, I'd know that the base was sorghum. I'd know that the qū was multigrain. I'd get the hints of ananas and anise in the bouquet. I'd get a faint whiff of banana peel as well, as well as a hint of the sweet part of cassia. I doubt I'd ever guess that tea was used in the production. So if I think I taste the tea after intense concentration, I've fooled myself like most #sommeliers do when they recite the #nonsense lists of comparisons they use to describe wines.
So, the liquor is good, but it's not really something my fellow #TeaFreaks will have much interest in.

Neri & Hu completes stone-clad whisky distillery in China for Pernod Ricard
Mount Emei forms the backdrop for this expansive whisky distillery, which Shanghai studio Neri & Hu has completed in China's Sichuan province.
Named Shan-Shui, which translates as mountain water, the distillery occupies a 13-hectare site surrounded by mountains and a winding creek.
Three long buildings feature in the distillery that Neri & Hu has created for Pernod Ricard
Shan-Shui was designed by Neri & Hu to house whisky brand Pernod Ricard's first Chinese distillery.
According to the studio, its design celebrates its rural setting and represents "the Chinese notion of the duality of natural elements, which make up the world we live in".
The buildings contain whisky production facilities
"While shan [mountain] represents strength and permanence, shui [water] represents fluidity and transformation; they are two opposing yet complementary forces," said Neri & Hu.
"In the spirit of this philosophy, the position of the proposal is to conceive a gesture whose very strength lies in its humbleness and simplicity, by its profound respect for nature."
An underground experience centre is capped by a sculptural brick platform
Shan-Shui's facilities include whisky production areas, which are contained within three long buildings on the north side of the site.
These buildings, which are tucked into the natural slope of the land, sit parallel to each other and feature gradually descending pitched roofs.
A restaurant has a courtyard at its centre
Their roofs are lined with reclaimed clay tiles, which top a concrete structure intended as a modern interpretation of vernacular Chinese architecture.
The walls of the buildings are clad with rocks derived from boulders that were extracted from the ground during site-levelling.
The underground experience centre has a domed atrium
The distillery also incorporates two visitor experience buildings – one circular and the other square-shaped.
According to Neri & Hu, these designs nod to Chinese philosophy, in which the circle and the square represent heaven and Earth, respectively.

Neri&Hu surrounds Junshan Cultural Center with angled aluminium louvres
The round experience building, which is partially submerged in the ground, contains five subterranean tasting rooms around a domed courtyard with a cascading water feature.
Above ground, this building resembles a sculpture composed of three concentric brick rings, which act as a platform for visitors to enjoy a panoramic vista of the site.
A water fountain sits at the centre of one visitor building
The square building, which contains a restaurant and bar, features cantilevers on two sides – one of which hovers over the bank of the creek.
Neri & Hu organised the dining space around the building's edges, while an open-air courtyard at its centre is oriented to frame Mount Emei.
The buildings are dominated by concrete and stone
Concrete and stone are the predominant materials used across the site in order to visually unify the buildings.
Accent materials include wood and copper, which nod to the equipment used in whisky production such as aged oak casks and copper distillation pots.
Wooden detailing references old casks
Neri & Hu is a Shanghai-based architecture and design studio founded by Lyndon Neri and Rossana Hu in 2004. Other recent buildings completed by the studio include the Aranya Art Center in Qinhuangdao.
Elsewhere, it completed the Junshan Cultural Center near Beijing and a campus for elevator manufacturer Schindler in Shanghai that both make use of reclaimed brick.
